Brian Goldman: 作为主持人,我主要负责提出问题,引导讨论方向,并总结嘉宾的观点。我强调了公众对生牛奶的兴趣,并明确了本次讨论的主题,即探讨饮用生牛奶的风险。此外,我还负责引出关于巴氏消毒奶和生牛奶营养价值的常见误解,并请嘉宾逐一澄清,确保听众能够获得清晰、准确的信息。我希望通过这次讨论,大家能更理性地看待生牛奶的益处与风险,做出更明智的健康选择。 Lawrence Goodridge: 作为食品安全专家,我主要从科学的角度分析了生牛奶的风险与益处。首先,我解释了人们对生牛奶的迷恋源于对天然食品的兴趣,并指出支持者认为巴氏消毒会破坏牛奶的营养价值。但我通过科学研究表明,巴氏消毒不会显著降低牛奶的营养价值,反而能有效杀死有害细菌,降低感染风险。我强调,饮用生牛奶存在感染多种病原体的风险,对儿童、孕妇和免疫系统受损者尤其危险。虽然有些人认为生牛奶可以减少哮喘或改善乳糖不耐受,但缺乏科学证据支持。总的来说,我认为在加拿大,为了保障公众健康,坚持销售巴氏消毒奶是合理的。

Lawrence Goodridge, a food safety professor and director of the Canadian Research Institute for Food Safety at the University of Guelph, explains how pasteurization works, while debunking some common myths about raw milk.
